GREAT MINDS THINK ALIKE

Newsweek recently obtained the key chapter of O.J. Simpson's vile book If I Did It. This is from Newsweek's story:

Simpson suggests Nicole all but drove him to kill her. He describes her as the "enemy."

The enemy? Isn't that an all-purpose expression used by a certain Commander in Chief to refer to terrorists, insurgents, Shiites, Sunnis, and everyone else who's ever looked at an American crosswise?

Our folks are very active in al Anbar and in Baghdad, which is where the enemy is concentrated.

--President Bush, 12/13/06

The enemy has got to be right one time, and we've got to be right a hundred percent of the time to do our job to secure this country.

--President Bush, 11/6/06

...we're at war because of what we believe and what the enemy believes.

--President Bush, 11/6/06

You see, in this new kind of war we must understand what the enemy is thinking and what they're about to do, in order to protect you.

--President Bush, 11/4/06

Let me share some thoughts with you about the enemy. You can't negotiate with them. You can't try to talk sense into them.

--President Bush, 11/3/06

Et cetera, et cetera.

And as I noted before, "enemy" seems to be the wingnut word of the year....
